Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken

I got this recipe from a new fave blog, Gina's Skinnytaste Recipes. We had this one cooking while we were at church yesterday and it was yummy! Give it a try:

Slow cooked shredded chicken with corn, tomatoes and black beans. Prepare the night before and turn your crockpot on in the morning for an easy weeknight meal. Low fat and low in points. Serve over rice with chopped scallions, fresh cilantro, fat free sour cream and reduced fat cheddar.
